Chapter 238 Fresh fish and sheep
The child's father is selling salt.
His sister Cui Niangzi came out of the house like a gust of wind, her voice was louder than that of Yan's second child.
"Coarse salt is twelve coins a catty, and refined salt is thirty-five.
If you want to buy, hurry home and get a jar and cloth bag.
The water tanks, jars, and jars cannot be moved home today, just to show off to the big guys.
You can only go to pull it in the day after tomorrow, so first count the number here with the boy of the Liang family.
Hurry up and stop dawdling, there are not many big water tanks..."
She shouted, and everyone ran home to get the salt jar and the salt bag.
"You don't need to buy more, first buy a half a catty, a few taels is fine, and I will have more when I go next time." Yan Lao Er hurriedly said.
Looking at this posture, it seems that my hundred catties of salt are not enough.
He looked back guiltily, and saw that Nanny Rong was looking at him with a slight smile, her eyes falling on the salt bag from time to time.
Li Xuemei turned back, took a bag and went out.
Standing directly in front of Yan Laoer, he opened his pocket and motioned him to put it in.
My daughter has been thinking about the salted duck eggs for a few days, and if I don’t pickle the collected wild duck eggs, they will go bad.
Nurse Rong rushed over in a stride, helping to fill a bag of coarse salt.
The two left contentedly.
As soon as his wife left, Yan's second son felt his back straightened up.
He looked around. Fortunately, everyone went home to get their things, and there were not many people there.
Many people buy coarse salt, but few people care about refined salt.
The big guys are used to the hard life, so they are not so delicate, just a little salty, and eat the same.
The orders for large tanks are extremely hot.
Water is used at home, and they are still accustomed to storing the water in the water tank first after fetching it.
What’s more, when a water tank is placed in the house, the fire can be extinguished in time.
Every family has a kang, which is equivalent to sleeping by the stove, and their hearts are even more uncertain. They buy a big tank and fill it with water, so they feel more at ease in the yard.
…
By the time Yan Yu came back, her father had closed the stall, and the vats and pots had been moved back to the yard.
A group of children skillfully sorted the herbs and sent them to Cui Langzhong's home for scoring.
Nurse Rong washed the wild duck eggs and put them aside to dry.
Brine is being boiled.
Yan Laoer just came back from the river, and washed the vats and jars inside and out.
Nurse Rong went over and took two jars, which happened to be used to pickle salted eggs.
Yan Yu cheered, washed her hands and rolled up her sleeves to help with the work.
The two fathers meet and put duck eggs into the jar.
Yan Yu: "Father, did you see that there are two more rams in the backyard? I've been hungry for days, and I'm just waiting for you to come back."
Yan Laoer didn’t say anything, “I’ll kill it today, and I’ll come find you Uncle Luo later, do you want to eat boiled or roasted tonight?”
Yan Yu swallowed her saliva, what to do, it was a difficult choice, she really wanted to eat.
"Lamb mutton!" She decided.
Yan's second hey hey twice, whispered: "I'm hungry too."
Father and daughter are having fun with each other.
"Let's eat one first, and kill the other when Lao Yan comes back." The arrangement for the two sheep was clear.
Yan Yu hurriedly interrupted him: "I can't, Dad, I have to keep a breeding one. Madam Rong is now vigorously developing family breeding. Look at our chickens. In addition to the eggs laid by myself, even the wild duck eggs are stuffed into them. Those little piglets you bought back are so chubby now, even the rabbits we raise in our field, Mammy Rong often goes to see them, just waiting to be born."
"Fortunately, I didn't mention raising fish." He said casually.
Yan Yu has an expression that you can guess right.
"Father, you are amazing. You want to put the fish in the water to live for a few more days, and you are in a hurry to buy a tank to keep the fish."
Yan's second child: "That's not much, let Master Lu help us wipe a pool..."
"I thought about it, but it's very laborious to change the water." Yan Yu frowned: "You have to have live water fish to keep them. Father, tell me, can I, Uncle Qi, build a water truck?"
"What are you thinking?" Yan Er Er touched her forehead, it didn't burn, why did she just talk nonsense.
"We have entered the mountain several times, and the water source is a bit far away. It takes a long waterway to divert water from the mountain, and it is not convenient to divert water from the river." Every time Yan Yu enters the mountain, she does not only go to collect medicine, she always thinks about it. It's about diverting water into the village.
"Your uncle won't let the river be moved, for fear that the water level will rise." Second Yan said.
Yan Yu: "We don't move the soil, but setting up a waterwheel by the river doesn't affect it at all. It can not only bring water here, but also pull the mill."
"The water wheel turns the mill, so why do we let the village donkey do it?" Yan Laoer thinks that the water wheel is not urgently needed, it is not bad, but for them, it is dispensable now.
"Father, haven't you noticed? You have to use people to do any work now. If you can bring water into the village, irrigation will become easier, and you can also save the time of going to the river to fetch water every day. The little you add up. , can these time create some other value?
Such as burning charcoal, such as with plaster, building a house..."
Yan Yu threw a bombshell.
"You... have you researched the cement formula?" Yan Er Er looked at his daughter in disbelief.
Yan Yu raised her chin proudly.
"I wanted to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it, hahaha!
Dad, the first version of cement is ready. Well, to be precise, it should be called soil cement. I don’t know if it’s the best mix, but after testing, it’s waterproof and it’s pretty solid. We’re not going to repair air-raid shelters. It is more than enough to wipe the floor and the wall. "
Yan's second child became excited.
"Okay! This is great. Master Lu's plaster is too expensive. Seeing him plastering it makes me sore."
Yan Yu's good news is not limited to this one.
"The recycled paper is coming soon, I just went to the river to fish for the paper bag, and the ink color has been washed down.
Although the color of the pulp is dark and not so white, it is not a big deal for our own use.
I thought that if it was sunny tomorrow, I would fish that pocket, light it for our fire wall, and make paper. "
Yan Yu was in high spirits.
Once successful, even if the freedom of writing cannot be achieved, the freedom of ah-hum can be achieved.
Yan Laoer's face was flushed, and he was honored.
Look at my daughter, why is she so capable!
"Do it, you have to do it, I will help you tomorrow." The second Yan couldn't sit still, and ran out happily. "I'm going to find Luo San, and I'll cook mutton in a pot tonight!"
Nurse Rong heard the name of the dish and looked for it.
Yan Yu happily said to her: "Nurse Rong, Third Uncle Luo will come to help us kill the sheep later, let's eat boiled mutton tonight, by the way, fish can also be boiled, add some fish meat, fresh fish and sheep ,a ha ha ha!"
Nurse Rong smiled very warmly.
Get ready quickly.
She first went to pick a sheep, tied it in the front yard, and then prepared the pot.
Turn around and boil the water.
Take back the dried fish and shrimp in the yard...
Luo Sanyi heard that he was going to kill the sheep, so he stopped going into the mountains, and followed Yan's second son to Yan's yard after taking some business.
The two simply set up a shelf.
Luo San began to sharpen the knife.
